    Should i buy it!??

    Carfax is nothing like the oasis report. Carfax is only as good as the information that is reported to it. An insurance company's files and vehicle manufacturer's dealers will report information to carfax but, independent repair shops do not necessarily report to a system that is picked up by...

    Fuel Filter Warning!!!

    I will use a Fram cartridge but not a Fram can filter. I've heard too many bad things about the Fram can filters and the possible Hazards to your engine if they come apart.

    Mobile 1 Diesel Synthetic

    I prefer to run Mobil products in all my vehicles. I do not run synthetic in my PSD as I'm going to change at 5000 miles regardless of Dino or syn. I have a Mobil 1 diesel truck 5W40 change in my shop ( got it from O'Riellys for the price of Dino oil when they lost my Dino oil I ordered). I...

    Said goodbye to Mrs TG's father today.

    TG, sorry to hear about your FIL. I've lost both of my FILs, one at the rip old age of 49 and the other at 56. Regardless of how long you've known them, it's never long enough and it's always hard to let them go. Please extend my sympathies to Mrs. TG. It's really hard at the Christmas season.

    Fuel Filter Warning!!!

    It's like when someone says the Motorcraft oil filter is the same as a Fram oil filter. I didn't believe it until I went to WallyWorld and put them side by side. Even the numbers printed on the top of the filter were the same. I have compared the MC and Purolator blue oil filters side by side...

    Question F-250 out of fuel problems

    Just get an 85 gallon L tank in the back bed with a DC pump. When the 38 gallon tank gets low, stop and pump it full with the DC pump from the 85 gallon tank. Don't worry about switches and valves. Try running just the 38 gallon tank with using the aux tank. I believe there is a venting...

    Question map light... bulb change

    I don't know what year truck you have as you haven't fill out your signature to tell us what truck you have. On my truck you simply take a knife point and place it in the slight notch in the lens and pop it out.

    Wanting to buy a (stick) welder but have no clue what size I need

    I have a Lincoln cracker box myself. AC-225 I believe you can buy one for about $300 -$400 depending where you shop. I built a box blade with mine which was built entirely out of 1/2" steel. If it will weld a box blade out of 1/2" metal, I believe it will do everything you need to do...

    Question 2011 financing question

    I would say about $35,000 to $40,000 if it has been titled already. On what your notes would be, let's assume you finance as follows: Principal $35,000 Interest rate 3.9% APR for 4 or 5 years then an increase to 4.9% for a 6 year loan and 5.9% for a 7 year loan. Years. Monthly...

    Do you clean your engine?

    Hey Drew, I need to run up to Tunica in a couple of weeks. How 'bout I just drop the Superduty off for the day and pick it back up after you make it look like yours?

    Do you clean your engine?

    Well, I used the Gunk Engine Brite tonight on the 6.0L tonight. Sprayed it on a cool engine and waited about 5 minutes before using the garden hose with a small sprayer nozzle. No heavy pressure. It seemed to do the trick.

    Sun roof no worky...

    I didn't take the glass out when I replaced the gasket on my sunroof. It was difficult to say the least to put the new gasket on but the sunroof works fine with no leaks. It sounds like you have one of the slides off track or out of alignment. Take the glass out again and reinstall it.
